YOU ARE INVITED to read the first few pages of my new novel Wildwood, about a single mother from the big city who follows the footsteps of the original homesteaders when she inherits an abandoned farmhouse in northern Alberta. Follow the links at the end to order the entire book. Enjoy!

It is my great pleasure to announce that a collection of twenty-eight veteran stories from my Wartime Wednesdays blog is now available as a printed book titled: My Favourite Veterans: True Stories From World War Two's Hometown Heroes.And in spite of my love for the internet and the way it has allowed me to make new friends all over the world, it is still VERY satisfying to hold the printed book in my hands!

Nothing represents hope and optimism like the New Year’s Baby – in my case, my first and only grandchild Nora! It’s been a great pleasure to bring you stories about Canadians at home and overseas during World War Two. Today I'll answer your questions about the future of Wartime Wednesdays in 2015.

Greetings

During my research into Canada’s wartime past, I uncovered some fascinating facts and anecdotes. I’ll share them here and welcome feedback and stories of your own.
